Does anyone want to compete this weekend in a mixed-pair at the Whiskey Throttle Team Throwdown at CrossFit Chateau? We have a pair of athletes that can no longer attend and don’t want the registration to go to waste. The workouts have already been announced at the website linked and I think most folk who attend regularly can get through it no prob.
